Lettuce & Floating Row Cover II

I purchased my floating row cover from Gardens Alive!

The lettuce has grown quite a bit since the last time I wrote about growing it under a floating row cover. [http://www.donnayoung.org/blog/garden/lettuce-floating-row-cover/]. From the outside, the green of the lettuce shows through the cover.

I lifted up the back where the excess cover was rolled up and I gave the lettuce more growing space. While it was open, I had a look at the lettuce. Some of it is ready to eat.

Couple of notes regarding lettuce:
It needs plenty of water.
Pick lettuce in the morning.

I suppose that you know what Holly and I will be eating for lunch everyday.

Garden, Lettuce

That is some beautiful lettuce. I see no bugs for you to photograph; what a shame. I have plent of insects in my garden. Come down anytime with your camera.

I forgot to tell a story. Last week the young man came back in from visiting his collard greens. He looked like he was about to cry. I couldn`t tell if he was actually going to cry or it was allergies. Anyhoo, he said there was some kind of bugs ALL OVER his collards, so he couldn`t pick them for his lizards. I went to check and it was just sprinkles of dirt. It had rained hard the night before and the dirt splattered on the leaves.

That`s kind of cute. Kids are so funny.

If I ever get to come down to your house, I`ll bring my camera, you know I like taking pictures of bugs.
